Title: Differences between Blue and White XS KEYS.
Post by: Jakl on June 12, 2016, 02:34:12 AM

While using XSKey Manager 1.6 I tested 3 white Keys and 2 Blue keys.

I took a pictures of all the White Keys in the XSKey manager and they were all identical. From the image you can see that everything that could be authorized was authorized for the White XSKeys. It even made Platinum versions on Windows available as well as TDM extensions/enabler/etc. - Ist Picture.

I took pictures of 2 Blue XSKeys and found them to be quite different from the white keys. The 2nd Picture shows this.
One Blue XSKey was part of the Logic Pro 6 Package. Everything was authorized except - EPIC TDM and Host TDM Enabler. This Blue Key also had Logic Pro 7 Authorized only for Macos.

The 3rd picture shows the 2nd blue key with authorizations for Logic Platinum 6. It too had Logic Pro 7 authorized.

All keys work with Logic 5,6 and 7.

So if you're out there to buy an XSKey for Logic get the White Apple XSKey which has everything for Logic authorized in the XSKey Manager.

Hi,
oh, maybe I have written it the wrong way...
I don't want to sell my blue xskeys ... I would like to buy an extra white one. On my blue xskeys there are all modules free besides PT HD Extension and EPIC Enabler. That's the reason why I am looking for the white one.

Best, paule.
